Alright, we were in the process of moving, which is why I haven’t written in so long.
Then after we were settled, and our internet was turned on – bam not a day later Hurricane Ike hit DAYTON of all places!
I’ve lived in Dayton about 25 years of my life, and I’ve never seen a hurricane come through. We are so landlocked it’s not funny.
Our power is still out, I just went up to stay with relatives till I get power back, I can’t handle being without the internet for a couple weeks. I feel so out of touch with news and such…
This is horrendous, we may not even get power back for a week or so, they said.
DP&L is not handling this very good, we were told the first day that it should take 4 days or so, we have a busted transformer on the main line out front, and our actual power post broke in half, and 30+ lines are down in our backyard.
It’s pretty bad, it’s lucky more people weren’t hurt though. A lot have been hurt financially though, many had lost food that they can’t afford to replace. Dayton has already been somewhat hit hard financially by losing jobs and such, this will definitely be a long lasting strike against the economy of the area.

Hey Patrick,
I know it seems like a technicality, but actually the storm would have been a tropical depression at best by the time it got there. I live in East Texas, and got side-swiped by the storm just east of us (luckily).
I can’t even imagine what it must be like down around Galveston, Houston and Conroe where the storm hit full force and remained an actual hurricane for 150 miles inland or so …
On another note, you’ve got a great blog here! I’ll have to add it to my daily reading routine.
@Michael: Thanks for the reading michael, and yes I am thankful I didn’t get the full force from the hurricane, but it was the oddest weather I’ve ever seen in this area. The wind just blew nonstop at 80 mph for 8 hours. It didn’t seem like it would ever let up, it was very ominous.
There were so many sirens going off, and you could hear trees snapping all around, it was actually pretty scary. I actually saw three squirrels fly past my window, poor guys lol.
Yeah, that’s crazy. Our Cincinatti office was out of power for a few days because of Ike.
